Chapter 424: Peace
Early the next morning, Xu Lian and Su Zhang personally sent Lin Qingwan and Wu Shilang to the pass, and this time they also accompanied a team of 500 soldiers, led by Sheng Ren.
Wen Dihan stood on the mountain and watched this scene from afar, and said with a sneer: "This time is different from the past, now she can come to see me with a mighty army." ”
When Shi Zhan heard this, he secretly lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.
Wendihan glanced at him and turned to go down the mountain, "Let's go, let's go meet this old friend for a while." ”
Shi Zhan hurriedly followed, he only brought the troops over yesterday, he was not lightly injured in this battle, and he still has a mouth on his face.
The Khan didn't ask him about his sin, but he didn't feel much better.
The Khan handed over the Liao camp to him, but he made such a big mistake, so his hatred for Lin Qingwan was not much less than that of the Khan.
So he couldn't understand very well, they had all been cheated by Lin Qingwan once, why did they still have to negotiate with her?
"Khan, if Lin Qingwan still lied to us this time......"
Wen Dihan sneered: "Then I will kill her, the Liang State is attacking Chu, they will definitely not be able to mobilize many troops, although they will lose both, but my Da Liao warriors are not afraid." ”
If he hadn't been able to gather his troops, he would have led his troops south from the time he received that the Three Kingdoms of Liang, Chu and Shu were fighting.
Now he finally knows why Lin Qingwan wants to talk peacefully.
This time they met, Wen Dihan did not shy away from the right minister, anyway, everyone thought that he had colluded with Liang Guo, even so, he might as well let them watch it generously, he didn't believe that Lin Qingwan would tell the right minister that the person who assassinated his father was sent by him and her in conspiracy.
Of course Lin Qingwan wouldn't say it, as soon as she followed the officials of the Liao State into the big tent, a smile appeared on her face, and she said happily from the bottom of her heart: "See Wendihan Khan, I didn't expect me to see the Khan, there was a rebellion in the Liao camp that day, I thought I would die." ”
"......" Wen Dihan looked at Lin Qingwan with a sneer and said, "Isn't that the handiwork of Lord Lin, you are also afraid?" ”
Lin Qingwan was surprised: "The Khan may have misunderstood, so how could it be my handiwork?" You know, I was still in the Liao camp at the time. ”
Seeing her so naturally shirking, the right minister couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and looked at Wen Dihan, no wonder, he said how could the khan be planted in the hands of a woman.
This kung fu of opening his eyes and talking nonsense has caught up with Zuo Xiang.
Lin Qingwan explained to Wen Dihan seriously: "Khan doesn't know, a lot of things happened after you left the camp, why, didn't General Shi tell you?" ”
Lin Qingwan looked at Shi Zhan standing on the left, and said with a smile: "A few days after you left, my affairs in the Liao camp were somehow leaked out, General Gu Lijia led people to break into the camp overnight, if General Shi hadn't come in time, I was afraid that I would have died." ”
Wendy Han said: "That's a pity. "At that time, it would not be bad if Lin Qingwan died, it would be better if he could kill her before she opened her mouth, there was no proof of death, he had an excuse to deal with Gu Lijia.
Lin Qingwan nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, I didn't expect General Gu Lijia to have such a big opinion on me, I came to negotiate peace with Liao with sincerity, and it is a pity that I failed to gain his favor." ”
"At that time, I was terrified, and I wanted to go back to Liang with General Su, but General Shi didn't let me leave," Lin Qingwan said: "Because it was an order given by the Khan before leaving, I also made an agreement with you to stay in Liaoying as a hostage, so I reluctantly stayed." ”
"But after all, General Gu Lijia has malicious intentions towards me, I haven't slept well for a few days, and that night there was a sudden shout in the camp that shook the sky, and we heard as if someone had killed me," Lin Qingwan's face palpitated, "Because it was dark and chaotic, and no one came to report it, I thought that Gu Lijia was coming to kill me, so I had to flee." ”
Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway, the two countries want peace talks, and in order to strive for conditions that are more favorable to the two countries, her charge of "treachery" must not be implemented.
Hearing her defense, Wen Dihan was about to be angry, and he glanced at Shi Zhan, and his face was still in a trance, and he was already half-convinced.
Wen Dihan's breath was blocked in his chest, and he asked, "Then how can your Liang army attack my Liao camp and capture my Youzhou and Yunzhou?" ”
Lin Qingwan sighed and said: "I was only in the Shangshu of the Lifan Academy, and I was in the Liao camp at that time, and I couldn't stop Xu Lian and Su Zhang in time, this is my fault, if the Khan is intended, he can punish me." ”
Wen Dihan leaned forward, "I won't punish you, as long as you Liang Jun withdraw from Youzhou and Yunzhou." “
Lin Qingwan hurriedly shook her head and said: "Wendihan Khan, deep down I am naturally willing, after all, peace is precious, but Xu Lian and Su Zhang are about to go crazy if they want to recover Youzhou and Yunzhou, how can I command them?" But don't worry, I have written to Your Majesty, and when the time comes, the mutual market will be set up in the two states of Yunyou, and a large territory will be set aside in the intermediary, and both the Liang and Liao people can go to trade. ”
How could Wen Dihan let all the mutual markets open on the side of Liang Guo, so how to calculate the tax?
You can't let the tax officials of Daliao go to Liang to collect taxes, right?
But he also knew that it was impossible to ask Liang Guo to return to Youzhou and Yunzhou with his words, so he quickly followed Lin Qingwan's words to talk about peace talks.
"Can the county lord still count the promise he made to me a few days ago?"
"Of course count," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "I have always been a trustworthy person, unless there is force majeure, otherwise I will do my best to fulfill my promise, but I don't know which one the Khan said." ”
"It seems that the county lord also knows that he has made a lot of promises, and he can't even remember himself." Wendy Han sarcastically replied, "It's about trading grain." ”
He squinted his eyes and said, "I remember that the county lord said that you have a batch of grain that is about to arrive in Dingzhou, and you are willing to trade with me at that time, and this promise is still counted, right?" ”
Lin Qingwan nodded again and again, "The one who counts,"
She said with a smile on her face: "Khan doesn't know, my majesty attaches great importance to the mutual market between the two countries, and we haven't talked about it yet, but he has already sent a wide range of guidelines for merchants to bring goods." ”
"I only brought grain, but those merchants brought all kinds of fine silks, porcelain, fine tea, and even jewelry," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "At that time, as long as the mutual market is opened, the two sides can trade." ”
Wen Dihan's eyes narrowed, knocked on the table and asked, "Doesn't your Liang's mutual market still need various procedures?" If you ask for instructions and prepare again, I'm afraid that you won't be able to settle it in three or two months, right? Lord Lin knows so well about the political affairs of my Liao country, he should know that our Liao country is in urgent need of food now, right? We can't wait for the mutual market to be decided, so I thought it would be better for both of us to trade a batch first, and wait for the rest to be decided. ”
"Don't worry, Khan, as long as the conditions do not step on the bottom line set by the ministers of the DPRK and China, I can make full decisions," she smiled embarrassedly: "The peace agreement has not been signed, if I deal with the Khan, it is smuggling, you may not know that last year, a military general in my Liang was sentenced to be beheaded for smuggling grain, and the whole family was implicated, so ......"
Wen Dihan's face turned cold, and he asked, "So Lord Lin wants to go back on his word again?" ”
"Khan misunderstood, we began to formulate the rules of the mutual market at this time, if the speed is fast, it can be set in less than three or five days, and then we can naturally trade."
She worked so hard to transport the grain to get him to sign a peace treaty, how could she trade it to him before the mutual market opened?
Wen Dihan sneered, "It also takes seven days to travel from here to Liangdu Kuaima, and you can make it in three or five days?" ”
"I am the chief envoy of Daliang, and I can sign the peace treaty on behalf of Your Majesty, and naturally I can also open a mutual market on behalf of Your Majesty, which is still expedient." Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "Special affairs, I also know that Khan is in urgent need of food, so my food is now placed in Dingzhou, and it is only a one-day trip from Dingzhou to Youzhou. ”
Wen Dihan narrowed her eyes, but the right minister didn't expect Lin Qingwan to have such a big right, and couldn't help but look at Wu Shilang, who had been silent beside her, and asked with a smile, "This is the deputy envoy?" ”
Wu Shilang saluted and said: "Exactly, under the deputy envoy of the mission, Wendihan Khan, rest assured, before the county lord left Beijing, His Majesty said that everything that is conducive to the peace talks between the two countries can be dealt with expediently." ”
He sighed: "The two countries have been in dispute for decades, and Your Majesty is most eager for peace. ”
If you Liang didn't just take away our Yunzhou and Youzhou, we might still believe in it if we say this, now......
However, regarding Lin Qingwan's ability to make decisions on behalf of Emperor Liang to open a mutual market, Right Prime Minister and Wen Dihan still believe it.
The two of them pondered for a moment and then asked, "How does Lord Lin want this mutual market to be opened?" ”
Very good, the peace conference has officially begun.
Lin Qingwan took a document from Wu Shilang's hand, bowed down and handed it over, "Khan, please see, this document is based on what we discussed before, and I have added some details, you can see if you can object." ”
Wen Dihan took it and flipped through it, and after a long time, he went through it, didn't speak, handed the thing to the right minister and said, "Take a look." ”
Lin Qingwan stood for a long time, and couldn't help but move her legs, and Wu Shilang stepped forward and said, "Wendihan Khan, you also need to discuss, and the hour is not early, why don't we go back first and come back tomorrow?" ”
The right minister closed the document and said with a smile: "This time it takes two hours to go back and forth, so why bother?" It's better for the two envoys to stay, and let me do my best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. ”
Wu Shilang smiled and said: "The tents of the two countries are not far apart, and these two hours can be regarded as a relaxation exercise." ”
"So how is it, I also want to invite the two envoys to enjoy the song and dance of my Da Liao," the right minister said with a smile: "Last time, the county lord lived in my Liao camp, but I am afraid that I will have time to see it in the future, right?" ”
Wu Shilang couldn't help but look at Lin Qingwan.
The right minister continued to smile and said: "Don't worry, this time is different from last time, we sincerely invite the two of you, and we will definitely make the ministers as guests." ”
It's not a hostage.
Lin Qingwan smiled at this time: "Since the right minister sincerely invited, but I waited disrespectfully, then I will have to trouble the right minister to arrange a place to live." ”
